If you can get a few lessons done on a piano about theory, go for it. Excellent help.

Ok, I play a Casino among others, it's number 2 of my Epiphones so I'll give you a hand, I don't know most of these songs particularly well but I can try and help. Use your amp at a reasonable volume, however you usually play but make sure it's loud enough to really hear yourself.

For a softer sound, try turning the volume on the guitar up (if it distorts, turn it back down) but keep the tone down. The pickup marked rhythm will be better at smooth, buttery sounds but this works with either.

For clean defenition, don't let the guitar distort but get the tone as high as you can until the sound breaks up. Should be nice and quacky, and the strings should define well.

And, finally, for distortion just get everything up as loud as you reasonably can, then play with the tone knobs and selectors. Remember that the pickup marked "Treble" is sharper and the one marked "Rhythm" is smoother.

I love my Epiphone hollowbody, enjoy!

When these threads come up I always have to wonder where I fit in, playing the guitar, the piano, drums, saxophone, bass, and blues harp.

Yep.

I LOVE the SG. I love the Casino too, they're both completely different.

Hopefully, as of July 7th, a sound technician for a performance group.

Yep, that's me.

Close enough, shoot me an email.

System of a Down is not freakin' metal .

Metallica is metal. Pantera is metal. Hell, even Cradle of Filth, Children of Bodom, and Atreyu are metal. System of a Down is poorly disguised emo music. Nothing wrong with SOAD, but it's not metal.

And yeah, I'm into old-school metal. Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Metallica, that stuff. Also kind of like the new stuff like what I mentioned.

Wow, really? What's your first language?
